Race Tracks
When the race starts at 21:00 CEST, only pilots and streamers will be allowed to stay on the server, all the rest of the guests must leave and can watch the rest of the event via stream. For each race we will do 1 slow test lap to familiarize with the track, secondly we’ll do 1 qualification lap to determine the starting grid for the race (qualification will be held like a normal race lap and not be done individually otherwise it will take too much time, let’s just have some fun this ain’t no racing game after all ;P). Points will be given to racers who finish each race according to the 10–8–6–5–4–3–2–1 formula (1st gets 10, 2nd gets 8 and so forth until 8th racer). The race tracks will be played in this order:
- Strike at Karkand (64) [image]
- Road to Jalalabad (64) [image]
- Kubra Dam (64) [image]
- Mashtuur City (64) [image]
- Dragon Valley (64) [image]
- Seaside Raceway (32) [image]
